Grekov chronicles the rise and development of Kievan Rus from its earliest origins through its social, economic, and political structures, drawing on a wealth of archaeological and documentary sources. The work argues that Kievan Rus represented a sophisticated feudal society with rich cultural traditions, trade networks, and legal institutions that rivalled those of medieval Western Europe. Written with scholarly rigor and ideological conviction characteristic of mid-20th century Soviet historiography, the book remains an essential reference for anyone studying the medieval history of Eastern Europe and the origins of Slavic civilization.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888018174171,"sku":"2026100006698-SECONDHAND","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/71c6231a-306c-4824-832a-ee56110593ce.png?v=1781753014","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006698-secondhand-kiev-rus","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
